Cautions for Pig Raising in Summer

Sufficient water source: the sink must have clean drinking water at any time, and spray some water around the piggery to cool down. Pay attention to shade: plant some tall trees near the pigsty, or use black gauze to block the sunlight, so as to lower the temperature of the pigsty. Keep ventilated: the enclosed pigsty needs to open more windows for ventilation, and some fans can be installed to promote air circulation. Reasonable feeding: choose a cool time to feed, such as 4-5 in the morning and 8-9 in the evening.

The summer climate is hot, usually this heat is easy to have a bad impact on the breeding of pigs, if not careful, it may cause pigs to get sick. In hot summer, pig farming should pay attention to adequate water resources, and if the pigsty is too hot, it needs to cool down. When the sun is strong, it needs shading and ventilation at all times.

1. There are sufficient water resources

It is usually easier to heat up in summer, which makes pigs feel thirsty, so there will be more demand for water, so the sink must ensure that clean drinking water is available at any time every day, and you can spray water around the pigsty. This can play a cooling role, but can not be directly sprayed on the pig to cool down, which may cause colds.

2. Pay attention to shading

Usually plant some plants near the pig house, you can plant some tall trees, which can not only have the role of greening, but also play the role of shading and cooling, or use black gauze to block some of the sunlight that can come in, so that the pig house can be cooled, not so hot, and an Arbor can be built near the pig house to reduce the temperature near the pig house.

3. Maintain ventilation

If it is a closed pigsty, you need to open more windows for ventilation. If the windows are relatively small, you can consider making them bigger in summer, so that they will be more breathable and ventilated, so that they will not be so hot in summer, and some fans can be installed to promote air circulation.

4. Reasonable feeding

You can choose a cool period of time for feeding, such as from 4: 00 to 5: 00 in the morning, and from 8: 00 to 9: 00 in the evening. This temperature is more suitable for feeding and try to avoid the high temperature at noon. This position and time can be changed at any time. It can be adjusted with the change of temperature.
